DYNA-GLO PROPANE FORCED AIR CONSTRUCTION HEATERS
This is a direct-red forced air construction heater for either indoor construction or outdoor use. Its intended
use is primarily the temporary heating of buildings or structures under construction, alteration or repair. All the
products of combustion generated by the heater are forced through the heater and released into the area being
heated. This heater operates at approximately 98%+ combustion efciency but still produces a small amount
of carbon monoxide. Humans can tolerate small amounts of carbon monoxide for short periods. Carbon
monoxide can build up in a heated space and failure to provide adequate ventilation could result in poisoning
or death.

• Turn heater gas valve knob and gas tank valve to OFF position.
• Propane tank valve equipped with the old style tting has LEFT HANDED THREADS. Turn POL tting
CLOCKWISE to loosen. Protect POL tting when disconnected from tank.
• Have tank lled by your local Propane gas supplier.
• Fasten full Propane tank and connect POL tting to tank valve by turning COUNTERCLOCKWISE.
• With heater gas valve knob still in the OFF position, turn ON tank valve and check for leaks
with soap solution.
WARNING
: Purging and lling of LP gas tanks must be performed by personnel who
has been thoroughly trained in accepted LP gas industry procedures. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in explosion, re, severe personal injury, or death.
1. Provide propane/LP supply system. Ensure that the valve on the cylinder is fully closed by turning the knob
fully clockwise ( ). Ensure that the cylinder is fully upright for vapor withdrawl. (see size/capacity, page 7).
2. Connect hose to heater inlet. Tighten rmly using a wrench. You must use the regulator supplied with heater.
3. Connect fuel gas tting hose/regulator assembly to propane LP tank(s).
3a. For units with a POL tting (see gure 1) turn fuel tting counterclockwise into threads on tank. Tighten
rmly using a wrench. Some models have a hand wheel that can be used to tighten the tting. This hand
wheel can be slid off of the nut so that a wrench can also be used to tighten the tting. IMPORTANT:
Position regulator so that hose leaving the regulator is in a horizontal position.
3b. For units with a QCC tting (see gure 2) turn QCC gas tting clockwise onto threads on tank. Tighten
rmly using your hand (DO NOT USE A WRENCH). IMPORTANT: Position regulator so that the regulator
vent is pointing down toward the oor and the arrow on the regulator is visible.
4. Open propane/LP supply valve on propane/LP tank(s) slowly. NOTE: If not opened slowly, excess ow
device in regulator may stop gas ow. If this happens, close propane/LP supply valve, wait one minute
(or until you hear a click) and open again slowly.
5. Check all connections for leaks. Apply a 50/50 solution of liquid dish soap and water to gas joints.
Bubbles forming show a leak that must be corrected.
6. Close propane / LP supply valve before attempting to repair connection.

SHUTDOWN INSTRUCTIONS
TEST FIRING HEATER
Test re your construction heater, following the lighting instructions applicable to the gas control sys-
tem employed. Leak test all gas connections with soap solution. Soap bubbles indicate gas leakage.
DO NOT use a match or ame to test for gas leaks.
STORAGE
Never store a Propane gas tank inside a building or in the vicinity of any gas or oil burning appliance.
When the Propane tank is not disconnected from the construction heater, the gas tank and heater
must be stored outdoors in a well ventilated area, out of the reach of children. If for any reason the
heater is to be stored indoors, the tank must be disconnected and stored outdoors in a well ventilated
area out of reach of children, in accordance with the standard for the the Storage and Handling of
Liqueed Petroleum Gases, ANSI / NFPA 58 and CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation
Code. The plastic tank valve plug supplied with your tank must be tightly installed when the tank is
disconnected from the heater.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Turn unit off, allow heater to fully cool and disconnect propane hose before performing any Mainte-
nance
